About this study

Official title: Prophylaxis Versus Treatment Against TURP Syndrome : Role of Hypertonic Saline

This study is designed to investigate the usage \& effects of prophylactic HS preloading, with two different concentrations, to combat the expected dilutional hyponatremia induced by irrigating fluid absorption and to prevent the occurrence of TURP syndrome with its potential complications

Read the detailed description

The study will be conducted on 60 patients ASA class I - III BPH patients, candidates for TURP surgery using monopolar electronic resectoscope. Eligible patients will be allocated into one of three study groups (n=20 in each). Group A patients will receive NaCl 3% HS at a dose of 4 ml/kg/hr; Group B patients will receive NaCl 3% HS at a dose of 2 ml/kg/hr; while Group C patients will receive NaCl 0.9% Normal Saline(NS) at a dose of 6 ml/kg/hr. All intra-venous infusions will be started 30 minutes before the subarachnoid block, and continued all through the procedure at the same specific rate for each infusion. Vital signs [mean BP, HR, CVP \& oxygen saturation (spO2)] will be recorded. Plasma electrolytes (sodium, potassium, chloride)and serum osmolality (mOsm) will be measured. Incidence of TUR syndrome, need for ICU admission, post-operative ventilation and total hospital stay will be noted.

Being tested

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • NaCl 3% HSDrug

    Also called Hypertonic saline

    Hypertonic saline 3% is a type of crystalloid solution with osmolarity higher than that of plasma.

  • NaCl 3% HSDrug

    Also called Hypertonic saline

    Hypertonic saline 3% is a type of crystalloid solutions with osmolarity higher than that of plasma.

  • NaCl 0.9% NSDrug

    Also called Normal saline

    Normal saline 0.9% is a type of crystalloid solution with osmolarity similar to that of plasma.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Serum sodium level measured in mEq/L

    Hyponatremia was defined as a serum sodium < 130 mEq/L

    Measured: 72 hours

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Incidence of TURP syndrome

    Occurring TURP syndrome manifestations

    Measured: 72 hours

  2. Need for ICU admission

    For cardio-pulmonary support(vasopressor,mechanical ventilation), neurological monitoring

    Measured: 72 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing NaCl 3% HS and NaCl 0.9% NS in people with Transurethral Resection of Prostate Syndrome, run by Ahmed Mohamed ELbadawy at 1 site in Egypt.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 26 Dec 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Egypt. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Serum sodium level measured in mEq/L (time frame: 72 hours). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 26 Dec 2018.
